Originally developed at the request of General Electric, all Paragon systems are built from advanced data acquisition hardware and feature true 16 bit analog-to-digital conversion capable of sampling all data channels simultaneously at a rate of 153,600 readings per channel per second. This rate allows the use of sophisticated anti-aliasing filters and digital signal processing techniques. Paragon is designed from the ground up to be utilized in a shop floor environment; accurate, meaningful data can be obtained in high ambient noise, high vibration areas and in close proximity to machining centers.

TM’s Paragon system has set the modern standard for data collection by making over one half million readings to characterize 3600 points on each part surface — collecting a thousand of times more data than similar systems. Due to Paragon’s multiple microprocessor structure and Digital Signal Processors (DSPs), rock solid, statistically relevant data is delivered to the mathematical algorithms in a steady stream, without gaps from operating system interrupts and free of anomalous values which can bias the data. No eight or twelve point method can even approximate this level of accuracy.
